Installing or removing battery cartridge

*Always switch off the tool before inser- tion or removal of the battery cartridge.

To remove the battery cartridge, withdraw it from the tool while pressing the buttons on both sides of the cartridge.

*To insert the battery cartridge, align the tongue on the battery cartridge with the groove in the housing and slip it into place. Always insert it all the way until it locks in place with a little click. If not, it

may accidentally fall out of the tool, causing injury to you or someone around you.

Do not use force when inserting the battery cartridge. If the cartridge does not slide in easily, it is not being inserted correctly

Charging

*Your new battery cartridge is not charged. You will need to charge it before use. Use the high capacity battery charger Model DC1801 to charge the battery cartridge.

Plug the high capacity battery charger into the proper A.C. voltage source. The charg- ing light will flash in green color.

*Insert the battery cartridge so that the plus and minus terminals on the battery cartridge are on the same sides as their respective markings on the high capacity battery charger. Insert the cartridge fully

into the port so that it rests on the charger port floor.

When the battery cartridge is inserted, the charging light color will change from green to red and charging will begin. The charging light will remain lit steadily during charging.

When the charging light color changes from red to green, the charging cycle is complete and the charger will switch into its "trickle charge (maintenance charge)" mode. The charging time is approximately one hour.

After charging, unplug the charger from the power source.

CAUTION:

The high capacity battery charger Model DCI801 is for charging Makita battery cartridge. Never use it for other purposes or for other manufacturer's batteries.

When you charge a new battery cartridge or a battery cartridge which has not been used for a long period of time, it may not accept a full charge. This is a normal condition and does not indicate a problem. You can recharge the battery cartridge fully after discharging it completely and recharginga couple of times.
